The second week of Skin Fair 2017 has begun, and while there are still good-sized crowds, the sims aren’t full and you can move around without feeling as if you are in lag soup. Now is the time to go and explore; take your time and demo some skins and appliers you haven’t tried before. There are a lot of very talented new-to-me creators participating and I have had fun trying them all out!
Other than my mesh head, everything else I am wearing from Skin Fair in this photo are from creators I hadn’t tried before. A couple I had heard of, but the others are completely new to me. I just love the eyebrows and eyeshadow from [okkbye]; they are great for a redhead – something that isn’t that easy to find! And this is the first time I am using an eye applier. I hadn’t realised (duh…read the information in the box, Peep!) that you could use appliers with the rigged eyes that come with Catwa mesh heads. The one I am wearing is from .euphoric and they are stunning! I will definitely be using appliers with the Catwa eyes whenever I wear one of her heads.
My skin is from ((Biyo)), another new-to-me creator. If you are looking for a dark skin, do check out this brand. I am wearing the lightest shade and it is actually darker than the photo shows (lighting, ya know). It is a bare skin and comes with a brow-less version so you can choose your own. The shading of the face is dramatic, while the body is understated. One of my biggest pet peeves with skins is when the shadowing under the breasts is too exaggerated; this skin has very subtle contouring, which I really like. Other than a couple of light moles, the rest of the skin is clean, but it has…dimples of Venus! You know, those little dimples above your bum that some people have? Too cute, and well done.
Since I wanted to focus on my face (and preserve my modesty), you can only see a peek of the harness I am wearing. It is from Salt & Pepper for Re:Japonica. Salt is the Queen of Harnesses, so even from this brief view, you can see the quality of her texturing, and the rigging is spot-on. The harness includes a 10 colour-change HUD and there are RLV-enabled binders available separately (also with the texture-change HUD). This round, the Japonica event focuses on Japanese erotica and runs through April 5th.
Peruse the credits for all of the details. I am guileless in sharing.

I did manage to get into the Skin Fair at last! Very interesting things for men out now, I’m impressed how much more there is this year. Got a lot of demos to try out now 🙂
Yay! I’m glad you got in and I hope you find some wonderful somethings 🙂
It was my plan to go through more of the skins and makeups over the weekend, but I had a change in plans and traveling. I like this skin so I must try it out.
I think it would suit you 🙂
